In reality I don't really believe that machinery prices will come down in future. They haven't in the past. Greedflation is definitely part of the problem, even though cost of production of equipment has unavoidably risen. Farmers need to price around more which will help reduce machinery greedflation. I've recently bought a new manure spreader, I was after a particular brand and there's only one dealer for them in a 100 mile radius so I priced the same one with another dealer further away out of interest, by doing this I saved £7000. I intend to look after all my gear and keep it until it's done and hopefully get value out of it that way
